The Best Kind of Day

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.” ~Flavia Weedn

Yesterday was the best kind of day. The kind of day when time sort if stops…and you get to spend a few stolen hours with one of your favorite people on the whole planet. Jana is one of these people for me. We had such a great time!

They were painted in 1983 as part of a project sponsored by Walker Art Center and Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD). Each barn has a poem painted by artist Mark Mendel from Massachusetts depicting one of the four seasons.

I had never really thought about this before, but I have seen these while touring the countryside with my hubby and the girls.

I enjoyed this entry! I also enjoy the concept of a quote wall. (I am going to copy it!!) I like how you are able to take what seems to be an ordinary day that most of us would take for granted, and come away reminding us that every moment is a gift. Beautiful photography, too! Thanks for sharing your gifts with us!

Glad you like it! Feel free to “copy” the quote wall idea 🙂 I love that my ideas inspire other people. Thanks for all the sweet compliments. The photography is coming along…I’m still learning and having lots of fun in the process.

Thanks for the harp parking sign photo! It made me laugh … maybe I should get one for behind my garage to solve my “random person parking and blocking my car in” problem! One of these days, we’re going to have to make a trek to Stony End together. 🙂
